Stop with the sour grapes. The best teams are the two that are left because they had to win all of those playoff games to get there. If the Seahawks were the best, they most certainly wouldn't have lost to the Falcons who, by the way, were beaten by the 49ers.

No sour grapes here the two best teams rarely make it to the Superbowl.  As for the Seahawks their head to head matchups with 49er definetly proofed that they where the better team.  Also with just a bit of better clock management and decision making they could have beaten the Falcons by four points also so the 49ers win against the Falcons didn't proof anything.

Head to head they were 1-1, so...that's a draw...The final score doesn't matter only the W.

Eh, could've, would've, should've, if and or but... If Kyle Williams doesn't fumble twice last year (including in OT!) then the 49ers could've won the NFC Championship last year and gone to the Super Bowl, it didn't happen though. If Akers could make some field goals (he missed makeable field goals in OT both games), then the 49ers win both of their games against the Rams, didn't happen though. If RG3 doesn't get injured (he was hobbling the whole game and the Skins were still in it), then the Seahawks might not even make it past the wild card round.

The Regular Season means jack all in determining who is the best team in the league. Last year the Packers dominated the regular season going 15-1 and what happened? They got destroyed by the Giants. Is anybody claiming the Packers were best team in the league? Or how about the 16-0 Patriots from a few years ago? They dominated the regular season and then you know what happened. Were they still the best team that year? There is no "regular season champion", the winner of the Super Bowl is the champion.

Always remember "Any Given Sunday"
